To Remove. Ink stains.

Ink stains, when fresh, can asa rule be re-
moved from cotton and linen goods, and even
from carpets, il Immediately washed with
cold water. Patience and perseverance, are
required, as the water must be. many times
changed and the rubbing and rinsing cor
tinued until every trace Of the stain has dis
appeared. To. remove a dry ink stain, try
dipping the part stained in hot milk and
gently rubbing it; on cotton and linen fabrics
this will usually succeed.

AWAY WITH THE BLOODY SHIRT n'-
There is still too much effort TO keep alive
sectional hatred in this grand country Of
ours. There are men and politicians who
seem to regard it reasonable for our South
ern States TO honor those who were their
leaders during the war, either living o. dead.
But our friends of the South would not be
men if they did not esteem their old leaders.
The war is long since past; both sides be.
iieved they we're right in that conflict; the
South was convinced of its error by force of
arms and history does not record an u-
stance iu which conquered people have
more chcerfully accepted the arbtrament of
war. To-day the Uni,ed States has really
no North, no South no East, no West, so
Intimate is the relationship existing between
tho industry, commerce and agriculture of
the various sections Let us keep our faces
to he front and unitedly work together 10
iulfi the destiny which lies before Ameri-
can citizenship. Let US be good citizens
rather than bad politicians These remarks
are inspired not so much by recent political
events is by report of the exercises at the
unveiling in Richmond OF a statue to the late
Gen Lea Christian hero, whose memory
is treasured by all who knew him, irrespec-
tive ofsectioual or party s.-SprinGfetd,

bare possibility of his guilt, and now while
death, the great destroyer us all, stands
whettiug his scythe. in the name not only OF
mercy, but OF justice, let him go, that he
may die on the old plantation and be buried
near the cabin of his fathers. And to this
end your humble friend, constituent, and
petitioner will ever pray" &c.
